Background technology
Condensation phenomenon comprises the cascade enzyme reaction relating to coagulation factor, and wherein several coagulation factor is the protease comprising serine in its avtive spot.Final step is transformed into former for soluble fibrin the fiber protein yarn holding circulating cells in network structure.The numeral of coagulation factor from I to XIII, except participating in the FXIII of the final step of condensation, other factors participate in condensing with the order contrary with their numbering; Therefore, factor XI, plasma thromboplastin antecedent I starts condensation, and factor I stops it.Often kind of factor all exists with the precursor forms of non-activity with by the activated form that alphabetical a represents.
Condensation relates to two approach, and one is intrinsic pathway, and another is extrinsic pathway, produces common final approach.Two kinds of machine-processed combinations are guaranteed to form solid and flexible blood clot, and it can be resisted blood pressure and ensure enough mobilitys at the same time.Under the effect of thrombin, the chemical modification of Fibrinogen experience, causes forming fibrin.It is necessary that fibrin is that grumeleuse is formed.
Intrinsic pathway comprises the factor existed in circulation, and condensation process just starts at Ink vessel transfusing.A part for extrinsic pathway relates to and not usually being present in circulation but the tissue factor discharged during blood vessel injury.When this approach is activated, chain reaction occurs, the coagulation factor activated during this period causes the activation of follow-up coagulation factor.This approach relates to the intervention of the factor Ⅴ II (FVII) existed in blood plasma.The factor Ⅴ II of activation, also referred to as proconvertin, be one of factor participating in blood clotting mechanism, it has the molecular weight of about 50kDa.It is a kind of glycoprotein of serine stretch protein enzyme family, and the synthesis of its activated form is vitamin k-dependent.In order to cause condensation cascade reaction, FVII must be activated into FVIIa.Independent FVIIa (non-compound) has weak proteolytic activity.Then, after activation, FVIIa and tissue factor (TF) compound, this tissue factor is the cardiolipin binding protein discharged during blood vessel injury.Factor X is transformed into factor Xa by FVIIa-TF complex subsequently under calcium ion exists.This complex also acts on the activation of FIX to FIXa, thus catalyzing endogenous property approach.Factors IX a and Xa activates again the factor Ⅴ II of activation.With activation factor FV and with the factor Xa of prothrombinase compound, prothombin is become thrombin.Then thrombin action is in Fibrinogen to be converted into fibrin, and also allows to activate FVIIIa and FVa from FVIII and FV respectively.The partial function of thrombin is when there is calcium, can activation factor XIIIa, contributes to reinforcing fiber fibrin clot.
But when lacking coagulation factor, cascade reaction interrupts or defectiveness, it can describe with term condensation is extremely next.
Under the tissue factor discharged after the tissue injury caused bleeding exists, even if when there is not Factor IX or IX, the factor Ⅴ II of activation plays a role in local.Therefore, be preferably in the factor Ⅴ II of activated form, be used to treat some for a long time and show as hemorrhage coagulation disorder.This factor participates in many pathological conditions, such as wherein patients goes out A type or haemophilia B, acquired Hemophilia or the congenital factor VII Defect of Factor IX or IX inhibitor, and as stoping at the contingent hemorrhage product of surgery.

The applicant eliminates sucrose and mannitol from Pharmaceutical composition, and these compositions are often used as diluent or the stabilizing agent of the pharmaceutical preparation of Coverage factor VII.
Sucrose and not existing of mannitol provide several advantage.First, the oxidizing component can introduced by sucrose or endotoxic appearance is avoided.
Show surprisingly, not existing of mannitol allows to prevent from being formed in compositions during lyophilization the polymorph of mannitol crystal, and limits the risk that impurity in compositions, particularly mannose exist.
In addition, unexpectedly, there is not mannitol in the present compositions and the stability of sucrose to compositions does not have adverse effect.On the contrary, observe compositions and obtainable formulation example as
rT compares, the rising of glass transition temperature.
Glass transition is second order trnasition, namely relates to thermal capacity and changes but the heat deflection not relating to latent heat change.
The feature of subcooled liquid is cooled to enough low temperature and non-crystallizable fast enough, and becomes glass and amorphous polymer or enter the pars amorpha of crystalline polymer of visco-elastic state from solid.Temperature when glass transition temperature or Tg are this state change generations.When fluid product is cooled to lower than this temperature, it becomes the glazed solid of class and frangible, is called as and is in glassy state.
Because when product is in glassy state, the mobility of molecule is blocked (only having free radical functional group still to have low relative mobility), be therefore favourable by product stock at lower than the temperature of its glass transition.Therefore, high glass-transition temperature facilitates freeze-dried composition better stability under high temperature (> 25 DEG C), and because this reducing the reactivity [Pikal etc. of active component, formulation parameters is on the impact (The Effectsof Formulation Variables on the Stability of Freeze-Dried Human GrowthHormone) of cryodesiccated human growth hormone's stability, Journal of Pharmaceutical Research, Vol 8, p 427-436,1991].
